Nothing drive me nuts more then people who can't get to the point! It's like driving a muscle car in the fast lane and getting stuck behind a Prius going 20 under the limit.

Why should we Free BSD?
I've been here for a decade and don't understand why this is getting people wound up.

Trust me, it's been asked and answered.
Fairly sure the answer is they are not required to any public disclosure. That is how it rolls..
NRA and even "Mom's" will send financial disclosures. Maybe their entity types require it.
SAF
Ok; if that's the case then so be it. What is everyone reading into that?

IIRC, due to their tax exempt status as a specific organization type, they are required to do their financials every year. Reporting them to anybody that wants them, might be another story entirely, if the person requesting the documents isn't a member of said organization.
The first post in this thread was a credible, mature and honorable effort to elicit important information.
For this thread to be immediately infested with gossip girl big eyes BS....is beneath contempt.
MSI President Mark Pennak puts in 40 hours a week as a VOLUNTEER, and scores of other volunteers do their level best to keep up with him as they allocate our precious donations to do what’s best for Maryland 2A.
The phrase “sacred honor” comes mind.
End-of-year accounting is underway now. I am happy to see our 2018 MSI reports too, but fiduciary obligations take priority.
Popcorn Brigade: any questions or concerns using your big words?

Search for the last bump stock thread. It'll be clear then.

990's are typically required to public for last three years upon request. Easy enough to post here.

Back the truck up Jeff, you missed my meaning. I have zero info about the matter but many obviously know, didn't say and were just poking the tiger. I was referring to the posts, not MSI.
I was not commenting on your post. We’re good.
You didn't. MSI leadership works tirelessly in Annapolis during the session fighting for your 2A rights and also have introduced multiple lawsuits (HQL, Bump stocks, etc...) in the courts. They are hands down the leading 2A organization in Maryland in that regard.
There are members here who delight in stirring the pot and would revel in a financial statement that shows some sort of impropriety or malfeasance.
You are one of more than a thousand Marylanders who are committed to fight for our rights via your donation to MSI.
There are NO paid staff members, just your fellow firearm owners who want to serve. All donations go to hire the lawyers that fight for us in one of the venues where we can win: the courts.
Our MSI board members donate their money as well as time meeting with legislators too, to move the chains.
Unless you're seeking advice on a rice cooker.

Our financials are available, on a confidential basis, to individual members at their request. We also discuss financials at MSI membership meetings. Free free to contact us at info@marylandshallissue.org. It is confidential for obvious reasons. Our adversaries would love to have that information.
Sounds right to me....I'll keep my membership up and I'd donate more if I wasn't a broke-ass :-)
